Kimson's Open Letter: Such a time as this (Support for AAPI communities)

TheSteveFundYPOC March 20th, 2021

There has been a large uptick in violence agains Asian American and Pacific Islanders (AAPI) in the United States. I have been struggling about the best way to speak about this challenging time as I honestly don't have any words. Here we stand with and speak out in support of the many racial and ethnic groups that make up our YPOC community. I encourage us all to support our members within the AAPI community as these injustices are impacting those that we care deeply for and about. During times of injustice, people often talk about the importance of allyship. I hope as we begin each new day we decide to support, speak up and work towards solutions that allow everyone to be seen heard and feel protected.

That is all I have for now, but I will speak to you all soon

Kimson

Violence and discrimination is completely wrong no matter what ethnicity or economic status. My heart goes out to the Asian American community who are being targeted and abused! I'm praying that people's hearts will be changed and realized that we can all live here together without a stigma of "if you don't look like me you shouldn't be here." Our country is supposed to be a melting pot of every nationality of people who can come and live a better life. The way things are going and the way we treated each other as a whole it's so inhumane! I'm praying for the Asian-American community for their safety Justice and peace in Jesus name!!!
